520 _aExamines mixed tenure's valuable role in creating social balance in sustainable communities. Looks at how the simple approach of selling off a proportion of vacant properties rather than re-letting them can improve the quality of an estate and endorses the view that new developments of affordable rented housing are best carried out as a part of wider mixed tenure developments. Reports on research into how much councils and housing associations have been buying into the concept of social balance through mixed tenure communities, with more than 70% of councils and housing associations involved in at least one initiative to rebalance their stock through tenure change either by new provision or sale of vacants. Tables cover mixing tenures, sales pitch and selling tips.
